TTC FIRST BABY THREAD NO.6

[Delilah7]

New thread before I forget and lots of new people join ❤️❤️❤️

@sunshine1987 I'm just not even gonna try and stop you! 😂 I don't have a frer, just cheapie tests but a line is a line! I'm still fairly convinced it'll be a bfn but my brain is going "no, you've gotta have your bfp in the morning!!" Crazy or what?!?

@mrsr16 not crazy at all, I thought the same today. Was surprised I didn’t get a BFP x

I hope it's just too early for you @sunshine1987 😘 fingers crossed for a couple of days' time! X

Sorry I've been AWOL have my 4 year old niece staying and she's made my ovaries hurt with my OH. 😍😍

@Crossfitgirl I'm down for Saturday babe! but I'm sure I'll be on by then! Xx

@Crossfitgirl www.naturalcycles.com/signup/secret?code=referralid20&referral=0061afa0054a4ed5ab0a97ef021a305f

Think gives you free thermometer and 20% off the yearly subscription, apparently it's a really good one to track your pregnancy on anyways, plus tells you to temp your 1st tri as it can detect possible MC by temp drop.

@sunshine1987 @MrsR16 in regards to the craziness, by the sounds of it you ladies are just my type haha!

Girls I can feel it, at least one of you is going to be a BFP. I'm so exited for you all! xx

Loving the restraint being shown (maybe 😂)

Tempted to test this weekend will probably be a bfn but my period should have happened this weekend except for this longer cycle!

@stormtrooperjulian @mrsR16 @sunshine1987 eeeek fingers crossed for tomorrow!!
@delilah7 haha I'm exactly the same, I'll probably start spotting mid week and AF will be here by the Friday, but WE ARE PREGNANT remember- positive vibes! I mean, I actually feel preggers at the mo with the amount of bloat I've got on right now!! Lol

Thank you so much @sullywifey! Do you think the subscription is worth it? I use flo which is ok but not great, and was gonna just get the decent NC thermometer and use it with fertility friend, as people had suggested the free version of that is good for temping - but looks like natural cycles is very clinically approved etc and has research behind it which I'm not sure the others do? Xxx

@crossfitgirl, to be honest I prefer fertility friend to NC. Though I pay for FF at the moment as was cheap. But with NC you can’t log symptoms/CM so I find that annoying x

@Crossfitgirl yeah I really like it, it was the first one I ever used and I learnt so much about myself and ttc as I apparently had no clue! I like the layout of it and dashboard. But if I found a free one before that did the same then probs would have gone with that. If FF is free just stay with that I guess! Or at least do the free trial!

@sunshine1987 Is right though you can't log symptoms that the algorithm takes into account. I do still log them though and compare month to month via the history tab.

xx

@Crossfitgirl I really liked natural cycles for the app as it is much more user friendly and pretty than FF but I have just cancelled my subscription after a year as I think as ff is free it's hard to justify paying for nc.

Am I completely alone at CD5? Everyone is testing seems like. Honestly, I've decided I'm not testing unless AF is late. Bfn is too disappointing to see. I told myself that won't become un-pregnant just because I didn't test early. This gives me more peace.

@sunshine1987 I know I'm a couple of pages late, but I spit water out reading about you confusing the source of the blood 🤣

@SullyWifey welcome!

BFN over here, even pulled out the trusty first response. Temp is still really high so not sure what’s going on. AF should be here today. Only thing I can think is the pregnacare tablets have messed with my lutheal phase as well as my bum 😂

@sunshine1987 BFN here too... not even a hint of a squinter! 😔

Sorry @mrsr16 it’s gutting seeing all that white space isn’t it? Sending love x

@Crossfitgirl I feel it too but I'll probably be disappointed :(

@sunshine1987 @MrsR16 sorry girls. Remember not out till AF shows though!! Xxx

@mrsR16 @sunshine1987 sorry about the BFNs :-( longer luteal phase is good though! Xx

@crossfitgirl definetely, if nothing else I’m happy about it being extended! Puts me in a better position going forward xx

@sunshine1987 onwards to next month! Probably... as @Delilah7 says, we're not out till we're out!

@stormtrooperjulian any luck this morning?

@MrsR16 I haven’t tested yet, I got up at about 6am needing a wee but forgot to test cos I was half asleep. So I guess now I’ve missed the fmu I should wait til tomorrow?

@stormtrooperjulian yeah I would just so there’s no ambiguity x

@sunshine1987 I’ll test tomorrow morning then. Af is due either tomorrow or Monday so that might answer the question for me anyway. If your af is due today how long is your luteal phase normally? @MrsR16 when is your af due?

Morning all! Sorry to hear about the bfn's.

I had a weirdly vivid dream about getting a bfp, which considering af is currently here just feels annoying!

@KatBeCool, I'm on cycle day 3 so not far behind you. Think I'm a bit odd, as I prefer to test if I'm a day or so late, as I'd rather know via a bfn than hang around waiting!

@Deliliah7, in a few weeks I see my best friend and her 18 month daughter, so dh is prepping for the broodyness already! Plus today we're seeing his family, 2 pregnant cousins due at similar times. Cue many comments of a 'when are you having one' nature... Fun!

Xx

@stormtrooperjulian it’s been 11 days since I started tracking in January. Today’s 12DPO 🤷🏻‍♀️

@stormtrooperjulian yeah, I agree with @sunshine1987 wait till tomorrow. According to Flo, AF is due tomorrow, but I've got no symptoms at all which I normally do by now!

Hi all

Sorry it's been a while again and im behind with posts! I'm having a strange tww, so needed to come on here again and speak to all you lovely ladies. Right so I think I ovulated last Friday or Saturday according to my body. I get the pains and the CM (sorry) so then I got the same crampy pains again Monday Tuesday and ever since I've had either cramping or the odd twinges now and then. My boobs started hurting yesterday and I've been having thin white CM (sorry again) I have headache this morning (I get hormonal migraine) so I have every symptom that I'm going to get AF in the next few days but I am 8 days off. Dare I believe that I could be!? It's the 10th cycle! Oh and I've been starving this week!
